Buzz Desktop v0.5.10: glass appearance, Send to channel, and perf fixes

New glass appearance theme option and cohesive settings page. Thread messages can now be sent to a channel. Performance regression from v0.5.9 reverted (get_channels, localStorage coalescing). Timeline retention and fresh-channel timeline fixes, macOS attachment picker fix, and link preview reliability improvements.
